Power and Wealth-Chapter 476 – You still dare to appear?!

Chapter 476 – You still dare to appear?!

Next morning.

It is the opening ceremony for the investment fair. All the staff has arrived in Xiang Yi Hotel to make preparations.

Dong Xuebing had not returned yesterday and slept at the hotel. After he woke up, he immediately went downstairs and saw Sun Shuli, Luo Haiting, and the rest waiting for him. “Director Luo, bring a few of our people and hotel staff to set up the venue. Make sure the microphone, speakers, etc., are working. Old Sun, is the order of the guest speakers confirmed?”

“Jia Yan was the one who planned it.”

“Who is the investors’ representative?”

“It was Master Park, but now….”

“Change it. I have someone else in mind.”

Dong Xuebing turned and shouted to Lin Pingping, who was talking to someone at the front desk. “Xiao Lin, show me the promotional materials.”

Lin Pingping quickly walks over with a set of brochures.

Dong Xuebing looked at it and nodded. “This is fine. Go and prepare a few more dozen sets.”

“We need more sets?! Oh… ok. I will go now.” Lin Pingping did not ask and went off to carry out Dong Xuebing’s orders.

“Xiao Jiang.” Dong Xuebing looks at Jiang Hailiang, who is standing away from him. “Get someone to station outside, and inform me immediately when an investor arrives!”

“Yes!”

A few investors arrived this morning, and there are 10 participants in total. This situation is still the same, but everyone did not show their worries on their face in front of Chief Dong. They don’t doubt Chief Dong’s abilities, but he took over Jia Yan’s mess too late. He only has a few hours to turn the situation around. What can he do?

After all while, Deputy Mayor Zhao Xinglong and other Leaders have arrived.

“Mayor Zhao.” Dong Xuebing quickly walks over to greet him.

Zhao Xinglong looks around. “Mayor Xie will be arriving soon. How is the situation now? If there’s not enough time, we can postpone the opening ceremony to the afternoon.”

Dong Xuebing smiles. “No need. We have enough time.”

“Good.” Zhao Xinglong nodded. “I believe you will make it a success.”

“Haha… You are giving me more pressure.”

The investment fair is the focus of the County, especially after Secretary Xiang’s embarrassment from it. Xie Huilan and Dong Xuebing are the winners of this clash with Xiang Daofa. Everyone knows that Dong Xuebing is not to be blamed if this investment fair failed because he was reappointed at the last minute. He can just push the blame to Jia Yan and. But if he can make the fair a success, it will make Secretary Xiang look even worse. Chief Dong and Mayor Xie will get the most credit for it.

This investment fair will change Yan Tai County’s political scene, and all the County staff is watching it closely.

Suddenly, a Business Section 2 staff runs into the lobby. “Chief Dong, Master Park is here!”

Sun Shuli, Jiang Hailiang, and the rest brighten up. Park Yongxi had said he would not be attending this fair before.

Zhao Xinglong is also excited and went out with Dong Xuebing to receive him.

Park Yongxi alighted from his car and smiles at them. “Mayor Zhao, Chief Dong. Sorry for being late. Did I miss the opening ceremony?”

“No. Please come in.”

After they enter the hotel, Zhao Xinglong asked Park Yongxi about his investment and noticed he did not mention the five-year tax exemption again. He only says he will reconsider his investment during the investment fair. Jia Yan could not even meet Park Yongxi yesterday. After Dong Xuebing replaced him, Park Yongxi has a change of attitude. Many people can tell Park Yongxi treats Dong Xuebing differently.

Many Investment Promotion Agency staff are relieved. If they can get Park Yongxi’s investment, then this investment fair can be considered a success.

This is an encouragement to them.

“Master Park, let me walk you to the venue.”

“I can go by myself. Just carry on with your work.”

“Then… Xiao Zhang, accompany Master Park.” Dong Xuebing asked Zhang Fan from Business Section 1 to accompany him.

“Mr. Park, this way, please.” Zhang Fan said.

Zhao Xinglong smiles as he watches Park Yongxi took the elevator upstairs and patted Dong Xuebing’s back. He was about to say something, and another Agency staff rushed in. “Mayor Zhao, Chief, there is a convoy arriving. But we don’t know if… They had not made any appointments.” When the Agency contacted the investors, they had recorded the ones who agreed to attend. But the cars outside have Beijing’s registration plates, and they don’t remember any Leaders inviting Beijing businessmen. No. It should be no Beijing businessmen had agreed to attend.

Everyone stepped out from the lobby and saw the convoy. Most of them are Mercedes, and there are a few A8 and Lexus.

Luo Haiting and Lin Pingping exchanged looks. They felt this group of people should not be here to attend the investment fair. They might only be passing by the hotel.

A middle-aged man alighted from a black Mercedes Benz and looked at the people at the hotel entrance before walking over to Dong Xuebing with a smile. He extended his hand. “Are you Chief Dong?”

Dong Xuebing shook his hand. “You are?”

“I am Old Yu. We had spoken over the phone last night!”

“Oh… Mr. Yu!” Dong Xuebing knew these people should be the investment group Xie Huilan contacted. “Nice to meet you.”

Dong Xuebing does not know how close Mr. Yu is to Xie Huilan, but the latter treated him like an old friend. “Come… let me introduce you. This is Mr. Luo. He is the biggest shareholder of a Beijing automobile accessory factory. That is Mr. Qi. He is dealing with financial investment. Oh, this is Mr. Liu, my classmate. He is doing agriculture business now…” There are around three to four men in each car, and all of them know each other. After all of them alighted, there are more than 30 men.

Dong Xuebing smiles and quickly introduces Zhao Xinglong and other county leaders before walking them into the hotel.

The Investment Promotion Agency staff are stunned. These are all the investors Chief Dong invited? How did he invite so many people in one night?

But before they can ask Chief Dong, two convoys arrived outside. All of them have Shandong registration plates.

Dong Xuebing had heard about the Xie Family’s fourth child, Xie Huilan’s aunt, Xie Guoyue. She is stationed in Shandong Province, and her husband, Hou Xingan, is Shandong Province’s Deputy Mayor. He knows Sister Xie’s connections had invited these people.

The hotel suddenly becomes busy.

Within half an hour, more than 80 investors had arrived. With the 10 participants who had arrived yesterday and earlier this morning, there are almost 100 participants!

Luo Haiting did not expect so many people to appear, and they could not handle the sudden crowd. She immediately calls the Agency to get four more staff over to help out. The rest of the County Government Leaders also called their departments to send additional manpower over.

No one had expected this quiet investment fair to become bustling with life suddenly!

Chief Dong had only use one night to invite so many investors?!

……

At the same time.

A ward in the County’s People Hospital.

Jia Yan woke up with a splitting headache. He looked around and noticed he is in the hospital. He sat up on his bed and rubbed his temples, trying to recall what happened. Suddenly, his face changed, and looks at his watch. It’s already 8.30 am!

The investment fair!

Damn!

Jia Yan quickly took out his phone and realized his phone is dead. He immediately got dressed and rushed out to get a taxi. He had drunk too much last night and still feels giddy on his way to the hotel. But he must endure it as the investment fair is more important. The opening ceremony is starting soon, and how can the person in charge of the fair not be present?”

“Errr… do you have a mobile phone?”

“What do you want?”

“Can I make a phone call?”

“… No.”

Jia Yan did not ask again and looked at his watch anxiously. He is worried about the investment fair.

When the taxi stops at the hotel entrance, Jia Yan saw an unbelievable scene. All the Investment Promotion Agency staff are busily working. Some are chatting with middle-aged men, and some are giving out promotional materials and brochures. Lin Pingping, Jiang Hailiang, and some staff look like they are promoting some investments to them. Jia Yan knows they should be investors from their dressing. What is going on? How come so many investors turn up?

Hahaha!

Jia Yan is ecstatic. With so many investors, this investment fair will be a success. If he can get these investors to invest, he should easily raise 100 million RMB worth of investments.

Jia Yan quickly walked nearer to the hotel entrance and started ordering. “Xiao Lin, have you given out all the materials?”

Lin Pingping and Jiang Hailiang noticed Jia Yan, and both nearly exploded from their anger!

F**k!

You still dare to appear?!
